I expected to see you at the Chamber of Commerce
Board meeting this afternoon, I supposed we would discuss
the data which you, Colonel Powell, Mr. Ketchin, myself
and others were accumulating. I gave the profile map
covering the North River Canal to Colonel Powell as he
is on the committee and a practical engineer, contractor,
and construction man; suggest, therefore, that you get in
touch with him and we all clear our information through
Colonel Powell, covering the engineering and construction
features. I do not think there is a more sound con-
struction man in this section than Colonel Powell.

I am sorry I did not get to see you at Board
meeting as I thought you would be there.

This will acknowledge your letter of October 24th, wherein you explain
that you are inviting Mr. Gerren and myself to divide time equally with
you on discussing the question:

"HOW MAY THE HIGHEST INTERESTS OF THE SCHOOLS OF THIS COUNTY .
BEST BE PROMOTED IN THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE?"

at Stranahan Park next Thursday evening November 1st.

I shall be very glad to accept your courteous invitation to participate
in this meeting if it can possibly be arranged. According to a plan .:-
which was completed yesterday, all the Broward County Democratic ; "i
nominees are to attend a Rally and Barbecue at Dania next Thursday.

Your letter of October 18 has been received. I
heard about the gooR work of the Coast Guard while I was in
Tampa attending the ceremonies in connection with the dedication
of a tablet to the U. S. Coast Guard vessel SS Tampa.

I am glad to have Captain Jacks suggestion. It seems
to me it is entirely feasible and proper to have this help by the
Federal Government, and will pursue the matter with vigor. There
ought to be more than one of these buildings of refuge in the
Lake Qkeechobee region.

Where would you suggest they should be placed?

I am going to follow this diligently. It is a practical and
helpful suggestion. I have asked Mr. Hill to send you the latest
report by the engineers on the Okeechebee survey.

that it dos'nt take only the edge sometimes to do a world of damag.';I

We sincerely hope your home and family was not in the path ef "
the storm and that FT,Lauderdale in general was fortunate enough to
be out of the storms path.
It is certainly very unfortunate that such a nice part of
Florida has to be hit with these storms so often it seems in reoamt. -.',
years,it is certainly an awful blow to the country in general and'
especially that part in a certain radius,it makes one wonder if it wi
ever be a safe place in which to live,
Of course Florida is'nt the only State Or Island that se8 0
have such calamaties but Florida is so_olose seemingly to us. up
that we notice it more,and with us having our little tract of JladL.
down in the Everglades,we watch it very olosely,and have been h q-
that some day in the very near future we could go down there' an
live in that part of the country,as we ooth liked it so much when
were down there in,I believe 122,

;We often think of you and wonder how things are going forfl
and your family in general,as you were sonice to us when we were
there we couldn't very well forget you altogather,we were just
some friends Fla, pictures Sunday,and run across those we haa tak-ea
up at Okeelanta with you,we told them what a nice time we had wfth

And do you ever see Capt.J.W.Ziegler and family that liiv
FT,Lauderdale at the timePwere down there,you remember we went 4;'
,to FT.Lauderdale on his freighter,and you furnished us with the .
bedding for our nights ride down the canal.
If they are still down there when you see them remember p',
to them as they were so nice to us also, will nuver forget how. .

At a meeting of the Democratic Central Committee this
afternoon, the meeting scheduled for Dania next Thursday
night was changed to Friday night.

This leavesme free to accept your invitation to speak in
the Park next Thursday evening together with yourself and
Mr. John Gerren. I should be glad to hear from you
regarding the time each speaker is to use, the order of
the program and any other arrangements which you have made
regarding this.

If you can possibly arrange to do so, would
appreciate a reimbursement of the loan at this time,
as we ourselves are having considerable difficulty in
satisfying our creditors.

Even if you cannot send the whole amount in
one remittance, forward as much as possible, and then
pay the remainder at so much a month.

With kindest personal regards,

Yours sincerely,

This referendum ought to carry, BIG. It's the ONE THING that will help the Back Country.
-And the Back Country will then help the town.
Lauderdale needs the Glades worse than the Glades need Lauderdale. Lauderdale can't live
on tourists. SHE MUST PRODUCE.
That means her Everglades must be farmed. Then, as in Dade County, factories will follow.
These will bring pay-rolls, and a YEAR-ROUND TOWN.
But the Everglades must have 'reclamation funds. Hence the Broward Drainage District must
sell ils bonds.
But it must first have more people and more values in it. This the bond-buyers insist on.
This won't cost Lauderdale one cent. It will cost Broward County one little mill on the dollar, about
$7,000 or $8,000 per year.
But the new taxes and new business this will bring will turn this little outgo into a BIG INCOME.
Further, it will help put a foundation under Lauderdale, and make it a city.

Dr Thos E Wills
Fort Lauderdale Florida

Sear Prof. Wills:

Your letters of 24th and 26th received, together with the

enclosures, which have a very strong appeal for any thoughtful

person.

I cannot however get into politics any further than I have

done already. With the multitude of duties I labor under in con-

nection with the Federation work, the Club here, and my church work

I am simply swamped. I only accepted the presidency of the Hoover

Woman's Club at Hollywood with the understanding that all detail

work was to betaken off my hands by others, and the same understanding

was had when they put me on the republican county committee.

With my very best wishes for your personal success I am

Sincerely

(Irs C A Walsh)

Mr Walsh speaks very highly of your qualifications for
the office you are a candidate for.

This referendum ought to carry, BIG. It's the ONE THING that will help the Back Country.
And the Back Country will then help the town.
Lauderdale needs the Glades worse than the Glades need Lauderdale. Lauderdale can't live
on tourists. SHE MUST PRODUCE.
That means her Everglades must be farmed. Then, as in Dade County, factories will follow.
These will bring pay-rolls, and a YEAR-ROUND TOWN.
But the Everglades must have reclamation funds. Hence the Broward Drainage District must
sell its bonds.
But it must first have more people and more values in it. This the bond-buyers insist on.
This won't cost Lauderdale one cent. It will cost Broward County one little mill on the dollar, about
$7,000 or $8,000 per year.
But the new taxes qnd new business this will bring will turn this little outgo into a BIG INCOME.
Further, it will help put a foundation under Lauderdale. and make it a city.
Do you know how the Everglades have been carrying the Coast?
SDo you know Broward's Everglades have paid in $700,000 or $800,000, most of which has
helped build the Coast. rather than the Everglades?
Do you know that, for 15 years, most of the 20,000 old Everglades buyers have been barred
out- from their own properties. kept from voting, and taxed without representation?
Do you want to keep this up? Do you know that, badly as it hurts the Everglades buyers, it
hurts you still worse?

If you want to do justice to Evergladers and yourself at the sarne time, VOTE "Y E S" on
this referendum.
Some have said, "We won't vote any more money to the old Board."
But do you know that these men are all out?
You ask, "Who will follow them?" I answer, "Let the Everglades owners name their own
board, by petition; and then let us all petition the Governor to appoint them. If, later, the Ever-
gladers want these men removed, let the Governor remove them." That's POPULAR GOVERN-
MENT, and it's the solution of this problem.
VOTE "YES." And then help the Evergladers get their own kind of a Board.

Dear Mr Will:-

Here is another letter in the same envelope wasn't
quite finished when I clo ed the other letter so here is another
thot or two that comes to me as a result of my summers experience
here

While I know it was done years ago when Florida was first
presented as a new thing I seriously doubt that any portion of
Florida can be settled by picking out and endeavoring to
interest individuals 'here and there to come down now not at
least without considerable money to work with. I do very strongly
believe that more very much more can be done thru the medium
of the CARAL and other wa er._deelopme nt in other words once
transportation begins up &nd down the North 1sRi-River Canal or"-
a very slightly expensive effort need be made to co3onize al'
the land that may be desired. Quite possibly considerable
progress can be made thruu colonization of groups thru their
organize tions for instance thru Mr Frank Morrison Sec of
the American Federation of Labor we could possibly reach the
proper authorities who could interest the miners in large
numbers .

I do not mean that I will wajo for those things because I
am working for Florida all the time and find a great deal of
splendid interest and some results will come.

I will be in Ft Lauderdale insix or esar weeks and we can
go ver the situation then, ni-the mean time I will appreciate t
it very si3-f if you will seni me i3 aip sheIn- ne the tr"c -ft
l-.r' re"'-fc: -' to in the legal description in b'e other letter ad /-
and tell me what you think it nijht be worth.

This referendum ought to carry, BIG. It's the ONE THING that will help the Back Country..
And the Back Country will then help the town.
Lauderdale needs the Glades worse than the Glades need Lauderdale. Lauderdale can't live
on tourists. SHE MUST PRODUCE.
That means her Everglades must be farmed. Then, as in Dade County, factories will follow.
These will bring pay-rolls, and a YEAR-ROUND TOWN.
But the Everglades must have reclamation funds. Hence the Broward Drainage District must
sell its bonds.
But it must fir.t have more people and more values in it. This the bond-buyers insist on.
This won't cost Lauderdale one cent. It will cost Broward County one little mill on the dollar, about
$7,000 or $8,000 per year.
But the new taxes and new business this will bring will turn this little outgo into a BIG INCOME.
Further, it will help put a foundation under Lauderdale, and make it a city.
Do you know how the Everglades have been carrying the Coast?
Do you know Broward's Everglades have paid in $700,000 or $800,000. most of which has
helped build the Coast, rather than the Everglades?

Well to date we hav'nt--eceived the paser and just wonder. i. 'it.
the Editor was injured in the storm,or his plantjuined.or both?. we '. J
hope neither happened but as the storm seemed to be so severe around :i.'
that part I fear he was in for the same a number others were in
that locality,

It must be an awful jhing from what the papers say up ar,.uns&,-
the lake, region,as it seemed to make a clean sweep of so many hoPsea .,.
and families and the towns,and then the floods_following made it so
much worse,as was hard for rescuers ito be able to do any thing,

I have just been wondering if it is worth while to pay~.3tee .. l
on the tract we have down there as it seems as tho, we are getting
no .earer to relizj-ng anything from the tract than when we first
bought same,have been watching the progress they have been making
/iin different ways,but they don't seem to oe helping things much
Around Okeelanta nor south of therei
r

The big SugarLen seem to be' able to get ht things they want
while it is the power of man so to do,but of course when the asamS
come that no one on this earth can olontrol then all have to be on the
same leave it seems,of course they help to improve the country in a.

way and may work out alright fob the oenerit or the whole Glaes.,but
the class Qjeoqple they seemed to have brought-Jn to the Glades doonPAf
seem to be very uplifting to me,or course in order to oDtain hebp to
take care of such ,they may have to bring in such a class as this

Well how are tbJings ,ging in_Fla, as to the Presidential .
campaign?suppose they are using all kind of tactics downt'here as
up here,that is politics these aays,I heard Borah of Idaho last nite .. ,
part of his speech was very-good and the rest was'nt O gsood as to my .
idea,want to hearSegbinson Fri, nite here,well I hope the best mam.
wins,that is the one that will help-the couory and the people "~n .",;

We would be glad to hear from you ,if you can find the time to"'''
write us a few lines,if you oan,t spare the time at present possib ly :..
you may a little later,if you have a paper that will give us the
exact news of the storm in general,and especially the Everglades,as we '
are mos positive FT,Lauderdale escaped same. "

We have heard nothing from you since this time and wonder if
this bank has re-opened for business. If it has, please let
us know at once that we may forward your check there for coll-
ection. If the bank is still closed, could you not let us
have a new remittance for the *j5.73, immediately upon receipt
of which we will return your unpaid check to you for cancel-
ation.

We are very anxious to close out this account which has been

matter ut inasmuch as the speaking dates for all the nominees of the republican party
have been arranged by the republican county committee I shall hve to adhere to their

and on the night of your speaking in the park we are already billed to speak at another
place in th- county. I notice that we are all to appear at Stranahan Park on the evening
of Nov. ?nd.
Assuring yu'a that I appreciate very much your kindness in this matter
as well as the interest you are taking in the educational work in Broward county, I
rema in,

Inasmuch as you have stated the question to be discussed, I
think it proper that you speak first and interpret your
question.

I am also of the opinion that no speaker should use more than
thirty minutes and that he have the privilege of using this
time as he sees fit. This would enable a speaker to make a
first speech discussing the question that you have proposed,
and to make a second speech answering any arguments that may
have been presented. If such an arrangement is carried out,
the second speeches should occur in the order in which the
first speeches have been made.

I have accepted your invitation with the hope and full
expectation that Mr. Gerren would be present and participate
in this meeting.

board, by petition; and then let us all petition the Governor to appoint them. If, later, the Ever-
gladers want these men removed, let the Governor remove them." That's POPULAR GOVERN-
MENT, and it's the solution'of this problem.
VOTE "YES." And then help the Evergladers get their own kind of a Board.

This referendum ought to carry, BIG. It's the ONE THING that will help the Back Country.
And the Back Country will then help the town.
Lauderdale needs the Glades worse than the Glades need Lauderdale. Lauderdale can't live
on tourists. SHE MUST PRODUCE.
That means her Everglades must be farmed. Then, as in Dade County, factories will follow.
These will bring pay-rolls, and a YEAR-ROUND TOWN.
But the Everglades must have reclamation funds. Hence the Broward Drainage District must
sell its bonds.
But it must first have more people and more values in it. This the bond-buyers insist on.
This won't cost Lauderdale one cent. It will cost Broward County one little mill on the dollar, about
$7,000 or $8,000 per year.
But the new taxes and new business this will bring will turn this little outgo'into a BIG INCOME.
Further, it will help put a foundation under Lauderdale, and make it a city.
S Do you know how the Everglades have been carrying the Coast?
Do you know Broward's Everglades have paid in $700,000 or $800,000, most of which has
helped build the Coast, rather than the Everglades?
Do you know that, for 15 years, most of the 20,000 old Everglades buyers have been barred
out from their own properties, kept from voting, and taxed without representation?
Do you want to keep this up? Do you know that, badly as it hurts the Everglades buyers, it
hurts you still worse?
If you want to do justice to Evergladers and yourself at the same time, VOTE "Y E S" on
this referendum.
Some hale said, "We won't vote'any more money to the old Board."

ADDRESS ALL COMMUNICATIONS CABLE ADDRESS
TO THE COMPANY CAMDEN.NEW JERSEY' US *A" "CAMELSOUP"

Replying to your recent inquiry regarding our requirements
for carrots grown in Florida, be.: to advise that we can only say at
this time that we buy each year large quantities of carrots for man-
ufacturing purposes. We have noticed that the price during february,
March, April and May is usually very satisfactory to the grower, but
there is some exception in this respect, as is true of all other
agricultural crops.

We buy at the prevailing market price for the kind and
quality. If they could be shipped 2sucessfully by wavpr in saks,
hagmers or bayrls, it would reduce the cost..onsiderably as compared
with rail movements and would therefore allow the groxsa a higher price
per ton. "Le would not consider contracting for_this or other crops
until the growers had demonstrated their ability to produce the crop
in a satisfactory and econornicil way.

The proper carrot for our use, as well as the domestic
market, is the imprtovd Chantenay. The bes4--strain of this variety
that we have tried is produced and sold to the seed trade by the C.
C. Morse Company of Caplijrnia. We understand they 'sel seed to the
seed tra [ oy and do not-sell to the grower, we advise growers to
secure seed from a dependable seed house that will guarantee the stock
to be the Morsergpwn Chantena_ pee.

We are convinced that carrots can be grown profitably in
many sections of Florida but we are not sure how long it will take the
growers to find otL hw to do it right. Our observation in the past
has indicated that the growers TiTlorida have to talk about the prop-
osition a good while before they really do it,

Do you know Broward's Everglades have paid in $700,000 or $800,000, most of which has
helped build the Coast, rather than the Everglades?

Do you know that, for 15 years, most of tht- 20,000 old Everglades buyers have been barred
out from their own properties kept from voting, and taxed without representation?

Do you want to keep this up? Do you know that, badly as it hurts the Everglades buyers, it
hurts you still worse?

If you want to do justice to Evergladers and yourself a't the same time, VOTE "Y E S" on

Dr Thos E. Wil4,

I. i --
Dear Dr Will:-

Tour Letter of Sept 5th, is recieved also the
previous one of May 28th A number of things prevented or delayed
an answer tothe previous letter, in the first place I had more
on my hands than I was able to care for. For most of the season
I was running levels and suprentending the work of two gas power
shovels and one steam shovel and the trucks that go with them.
That left little time for else. Besides thai, nave some sub-
division property here that required attention. Besides that I
became extremely discouraged if not disgusted with the type of
people we were considering as prospects for Okelanta. On my work
many such people cam- under my observation this summer as well a
as in previous years, they wontL.p_.n at anything .o10g nnuh -
to get any where in fact I had half a dozen good sort or enape
pretty well lined up thru the summer and now they are scatteredf
to the four winds they are wage _saves by there owU wish so
to speak. People who are worthy of consideration have more than,
*200.00 as a rule quite frequently it is tied up in a home or
property of some sort at any rate they have something.
I do not mean that it cannot be done it can and is but the
right way to do it must be found and it must-Te a better average
type of individual.
There was one other reason why I did bnot write that reason
is quite a difficult one to describe or discuss because it is of
a rather personal nature but since $ou have been so consed-
erateof my silence and have overlooked it and written again
in spite of it in this splendid way I am going to say what I have
wanted to say this long t6me back. Dr Will You have practically
given your life to the Everglades you love it and you are bound
and determined to make it go absolutely make it go, your mindC K
and heart arerapped up in it and it has carried it to xx
certain extremes that you do not quite realize almost to the
point of radicalism. I under stand it because I understand and
love the Everglades and love them and understand the hold they
get on a person. I hope what I am doing will not bring months
of silence or be miss understood I am doing it because I believe
in you and in the Everglades. To Be Specific. We must remember
that the average individuals vocabulary is only eight or nine
hundred words that is generous I believe. Mr Wills Not one in
a thousand of th0 people we are trying to appeal to have the
slightest idea who Cinncinnatu as or what Old Boreas is
g yigagejow rguable to find ott they would all be sunk when h
